On a NVIDIA Quadro P2000 (laptop) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Forza Horizon 6 runs at roughly 60 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 27FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA Quadro P2000 (laptop) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Forza Horizon 6 is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 60 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 27 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 60 FPS at 1080p and 45 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 26 FPS at 4K. Forza Horizon 6 offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA Quadro P2000 (laptop) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Forza Horizon 6: Forza Tech engine - very well-optimised; MSAA is the heaviest setting, so lower it before anything else.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Forza supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. The biggest single FPS gain — turn it on first; at the speeds you drive, Quality upscaling is hard to tell from native.
Ray Tracing (gameplay)Offsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections on the car during races (full RT only appears in ForzaVista/garage). A modest cost for a subtle gameplay gain — turn it off first if you need frames.
MSAA / Anti-AliasingOff+16% FPS
Smooths jagged edges, and it is one of the heaviest settings in Forza. Dropping from 8x/4x to 2x claws back a lot of frames for a small clarity loss — especially with upscaling on.
Ambient OcclusionOff+6% FPS
Soft contact shadows under cars and scenery. Cheap and subtle at speed.
Environment Detail / World GeometryHigh+4% FPS
Roadside detail, foliage and how much of the world draws in. "Extreme" is a big hit over "Ultra" for a difference you blow past at 200mph.
Shadow QualityHigh+3% FPS
Shadow resolution and draw distance. High/Ultra looks great and runs much better than Extreme.
Reflections QualityHigh+3% FPS
Reflections on your car body and wet roads. Costly at the top end — Ultra is a safe, good-looking step down from Extreme.
Particle / Effects QualityHigh+2% FPS
Dust, smoke and weather effects. Drops most during rain and off-road — lower it if storms tank your frame rate.
Motion BlurOff+2% FPS
Pure preference and barely touches FPS — many players turn it off for a crisper sense of speed.
Texture QualityUltrabaseline
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 4–6GB laptop GPUs keep it at High rather than Ultra.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps the road surface sharp into the distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
